Job satisfaction among pharmacists affects the quality of pharmaceutical care and patient health. Our study targeted the evaluation of job and salary satisfaction levels in pharmacists and the factors affecting these levels. Methods — We conducted the survey of 407 pharmacists working at community pharmacies in Saratov Oblast (Russia). Results — The proportions of pharmacists satisfied with their jobs and their salaries were 77.1±0.4% and 52.8±0.4%, respectively. We discovered that salary satisfaction was influenced primarily by the household composition (p=0.004) and professional commitment (p<0.001). Pharmacists who were more satisfied with their jobs belonged to the age category ‘up to 44 years’ (p=0.002). They were less likely to change their employment (p<0.001) and more likely to experience positive emotions when performing their professional activities (p<0.001). Also, they were more satisfied with their salaries (p<0.001), committed to their profession (p<0.001), and more likely to perceive the social importance of their profession (p<0.001). Conclusion — Our findings suggested that formal traits of pharmaceutical professionals had a smaller impact on their job satisfaction, while the greatest impact was caused by the personal characteristics (perception of the social importance of their profession, professional commitment), salary satisfaction, age and frequency of changing jobs.

Job satisfaction is the most common topic of research, but it is still relevant as most problems in the workplace are related to employees’ job satisfaction. The same problem is also prevalent those working in higher educational institutions. Due to this concern, the present study was conducted among 163 academics in private colleges in Kuantan, Pahang, Malaysia. Based on the result of factor analysis, it was found that job satisfaction of academics can be divided into four dimensions; career and salary satisfaction, creativity satisfaction, administration satisfaction and attitudinal satisfaction. Factors that significantly influence the dimensions of job satisfaction are flexible work arrangement, salary and promotion. All these three factors significantly influence career and salary satisfaction and administration satisfaction. Promotion on the other hand leads to creativity satisfaction. And, salary contributes to attitudinal satisfaction. The findings of the study indicate the importance of flexible work arrangement and compensation on academics’ satisfaction, thus, the management should consider these aspects when planning for the work schedule and career development of the academics in the institutions of higher learning.

High rate of turnover leads to adverse effect to an organization. Such problem is likely generating instability and uncertainty towards employment condition and human resources cost rise in forms of training invested to them, recruitment and newly built training programs. High turnover, in addition, also results in organizational ineffectiveness because it loses experienced employees as well as spends much times in training new, inexperienced employees.

This study aims to examine the impact of job satisfaction on employee turnover intention in Bank Al Habib in Pakistan. This research is quantitative in nature and has utilized the double linear regression analysis and the data was collected through self-administrated structured questionnaire. A sample of 375 employees in the Bank Al Habib was selected randomly. The collected data was analyzed through partial least square technique using the Smart PLS software. The findings and results demonstrated that job satisfaction has a significant relationship with turnover intention. Five job-satisfaction dimensions as prescribed by the job descriptive index were employed to measure the job satisfaction variable, which include salary satisfaction, promotion satisfaction, work environment satisfaction, task satisfaction, and supervision satisfaction. The first-dimension salary satisfaction was found to have a significant relationship with turnover intention, which validates that if more salaries are offered to the employees, the job satisfaction level increases and turnover intention decreases. Similarly, the second dimension, promotion satisfaction was to also be found to have a significantly relationship with turnover intention which asserts that higher promotion and career development opportunities reduce the employee turnover intention. Correspondingly, the third variable, work environment satisfaction has a significant relationship with turnover intention which demonstrates that the better co-worker relationships and better physical  work environment characteristics reduces employees’ turnover intention. Likewise, the fourth and fifth variables task satisfaction and supervision satisfaction, respectively, also validate a significant relationship with job satisfaction and a significant relationship with turnover intention. The purpose of this study was to provide a valid framework to the managers and decision makers at bank Al-Habib which would help them devise appropriate job motivational strategies to increase job satisfaction, reduce turnover intention and overall promote organizational productivity and efficiency.
